I'm not sure if TD is an authorized retailer... According to the OP over at SD, a CSR from PO claimed that TD was, but unless I see it in print somewhere from TiVo, IDK. At this time, I'm personally not willing to deal with the fighting for a rebate as some of us had to do the last time with our TiVo purchases. I will update the OP if more info is provided.
*(6) Valid only for new, TiVo Series2 and Series3 Digital Video Recorders purchased from an authorized TiVo retailer or through our website (www.TiVo.com).
Series2 DVRs and Series2 DT DVRs are compatible with Dish Network receivers that support IR control; however, the Series2 DT DVR only has single tuner functionality when it is set up with satellite input.
If you have a Dish Network receiver that does not support IR control, the DVR will not be able to change the channel on your satellite receiver.
We are aware of two Dish receivers that do not support IR control: # EchoStar 4000 # JVC 4500
Notes Series3 HD DVRs are not compatible with any brand of satellite receiver.
This same machine is still free hereFree Tivo. Seems to be a better deal than $79.95 with the 3 months of free service factored in. Although I don't believe that the KidZone TiVo is eligible for multi service dicounts.

Although I don't believe that the KidZone TiVo is eligible for multi service dicounts. It is a better deal if you cannot get the $150 rebate. If you can get the rebate it is not even close becuase the rebate definitely won't work with this one.
Ahh yes, I prob was, sorry about the confusion. I was startnig to think maybe the deal was dead or something and we def. weren't getting rebates for it.
Just wanted to make sure I didn't miss something...
In regards to TiVo rebates, the authorized retailer is vague. I bought a S2 DT at Big Lots and with a little prodding, my $150 rebate has been approved, despite the fact that there was information to the contrary.

I activated lifetime for my FIL (he sprung the other $299). Once I get the rebate, I make $10 and he gets a lifetime TiVo for $299. Not as hot as the CL TiVo's I got (3 X 140 hour S2 = $375) but not too shabby either.
For what it's worth I got two rebates for $150 on TiVo S2 DT purchased from Tiger Direct around Christmas time. I couldn't submit the rebate online, said there were no rebates available for my TiVo service number. I contacted TiVo via email and they said they didn't know why the rebate wasn't showing up as valid and to try mailing in the rebate. I mailed in the rebate, and I was thinking Tiger Direct wasn't an autorized retailer and I wasn't going to get the rebate, but i got an email about a week ago saying I was approved and my check would be in the mail.
I don't know if the rebate will work when combined with the 3 month free promotion, but apparently TiVo rebates are valid on purchases from Tiger Direct. I didn't have to fight TiVo to get it or anything, not even a phone call, I was a little worried when I couldn't submit online but after mailing it in I was approved without any hassles.
